'There's No place like home there's No place like home...' World Trade Center Attack Leads to Drug Arrest Thursday, Oct. 25, 2001 NEW YORK (Reuters) - Six men have been indicted for suspected involvement in a drug ring police discovered after one of the suspects refused to evacuate his smoke and debris-filled apartment near "ground zero" of the World Trade Center attack. "This guy ... had his priorities in mind despite the fact that the World Trade Center crumbled right across the street. He didn't leave his post," said Bridget Brennan of the city's special narcotics unit. One man in the alleged drug ring was arrested on Sept. 11, the day that two hijacked jumbo jets slammed into the World Trade Center and destroyed the twin towers, in an apartment a few hundred yards from the disaster site, prosecutors said. Several others were arrested later, they said. "The Fire and Police Department officers were alert to any kind of suspicious behavior and they took appropriate action," Brennan said at a news conference Wednesday with Robert Morgenthau, Manhattan district attorney. In a sweep of areas placed off-limits after the attack, the Fire Department filed a report that there was still a person at an address who failed to evacuate an apartment filled with smoke and debris just north of the twin towers that caught the eye of Morgenthau. He noticed that the address was the same as a place sited in a year-long investigation by his office as an alleged drug ring station. Morgenthau issued search warrants, dispatched police to the apartment, who arrested the man. The Manhattan prosecutor said police also seized 3,000 ecstasy tablets, hashish, marijuana, drug paraphernalia including scales, grinders, chemical, guns and ammunition from the apartment.
